Demi was accused of being immature and childish, while Nicole insisted Onyeka bullied her during the filming process.
In addition, Sydney Lotuaco flat out asked Colton if he's still a virgin.
The event also included Caelynn Miller-Keyes and Hannah Brown talking about her broken heart and hopefully finding love again in the future. All of that, plus bloopers and extended previews for The Bachelor's Season 23 finale.
Below is a list of highlights from the memorable The Women Tell All broadcast:
- The ladies seemed to agree Colton can't choose Hannah Godwin or Tayshia Adams after confessing his love to Cassie and getting dumped by her. Sydney Lotuaco said she wouldn't be able to look the other girls in the eye after that.
- Catherine Agro insisted she came on the show for the right reasons.
- Nicole said what she experienced in the house was truly bullying by Onyeka Ehie because Onyeka had called her "emotionally unstable" and a "psycho." Onyeka argued, however, she never said those things to her face.
- Tracy Shapoff admitted Onyeka has a "polarizing personality" but she didn't bully Nicole.
- Nicole said Onyeka "belittled her" and talks down to her or over her. Sydney Lotuaco said Onyeka was in the house just to "make noise" and she targeted someone sweet, quiet and sensitive like Nicole.
- Onyeka accused Sydney of leaving The Bachelor "like a coward," but Sydney said her decision to quit was actually brave.

- "I still don't think Nicole is a good person," Onyeka alleged. "I think she hides behind her tears and I think who she was on-camera is completely different from who she was off-camera."

- Nicole said Onyeka "truly hurt" her, but Onyeka insisted she just speaks her mind.
- The girls yelled over each other, picked sides, and individual voices could not be heard. Nicole therefore almost cried about how she was "drowning" in the noise, and Chris Harrison had to break the debate up.
- Katie Morton said things she had heard and seen in the house were values women had that did not match up with what Colton wanted in a future wife.
- Caelynn said Katie's allegations affected her relationship with Colton "deeply" and she "threw every single relationship under the bus" and made Colton question every single relationship.
- Katie said what Caelynn and Cassie seemed to value in life -- at this point in their life -- didn't seem to line up with what Colton wanted.
- "And to set the record straight, The Bachelorette conversation did happen on the bus from the airport in Singapore to the hotel," Katie said. "It was talking about being the Bachelorette or one of us winning and one of us being the Bachelorette after this. And the word 'winning,' I didn't feel Colton was something to be won. I felt like it was a relationship to work for."

- "I said, 'Cassie, if it's me at the end of this, I pray that you're the Bachelorette and you find your person,' because that's what best friends do. And she said the same thing, vice versa," Caelynn insisted.
- Caelynn said she spoke to Katie on the phone after the show filming and asked what she had heard. Caelynn said Katie agreed in that moment her story was accurate. (Katie's mouth dropped open).

- Katie said she was "so mad" she was "shaking" because "that's the manipulation Hannah B. warned Colton about."
- Katie was hoping Caelynn was going to own her behavior and admit to talking about being the next Bachelorette. Kirpa Sudick also said Caelynn had admitted such a discussion to her after taping.
- Adrianne Jane pointed out Caelynn handled herself with the utmost class and never talked trash about the other women when they all fired away at her.
- Hannah B. said she agreed with Katie and had also heard Caelynn and Cassie's conversation on the bus. Hannah B., however, didn't want to get into it, saying she and Caelynn didn't mix well because they were like "oil and water."
- Caelynn and Hannah B. are happy with their relationship now and said they'll continue to support each other.
- Courtney Curtis accused Demi Burnett of acting like a child and running her mouth. Courtney said she never says anything of "substance."
- Demi admitted calling Courtney "the cancer of the house" was "a little extreme" and "a bit much." Demi therefore compared Courtney to "a bed bug," because she was barely there yet managed to bother her constantly.
- Courtney said she didn't know how to deal with immature people, and then she approached Demi and shoved a pacifier in her mouth. Demi was furious but was able to laugh it off.

- "Not feeling loved back sucks," Caelynn said, adding that she and Colton were truly falling for each other.
- Caelynn didn't think her hometown could have gone better, so she was really confused as to why Colton let her go afterwards. Caelynn revealed she's "a realistic person" and thought Colton was as invested in their relationship as she was.
- "I was left standing there, like, 'What the hell happened?!' How can we go from having the best time... to nothing?" Caelynn asked. "I'm shaking right now about seeing him."

- Demi gave Courtney an opportunity to talk to Colton for the first time as a way to tease and make fun of her.
- Caelynn asked Colton what happened and what went wrong. Colton said the Rose Ceremony in which he ousted her was the hardest of them all because their relationship was "special."
- Colton felt bad about not giving Caelynn any closure. He didn't know what to say at the time of her elimination because nothing was really missing.
- "I think it just comes down to I loved him and he didn't love me, and that sucks," Caelynn announced.
- Hannah B. was also shocked when she went home because she had gotten to meet his parents. Hannah B. didn't understand why Colton would introduce her to his parents when his feelings weren't there for her, but she gave Colton kudos for following his heart.

- "I think the hardest thing for me was not being loved back, my feelings not being reciprocated or quite to where I'm at," Colton explained. "So there was a little frustration. It was confusing; it was hard."
- Colton realized being the Bachelor doesn't mean he's invincible and women can quit their relationship at any time.
